I'm sure that was your attempt at a joke, but AA stands or American Atheists. How the hell is it that I, a non-atheist, happens to know more about the largest atheist organization in North America than you, the atheist, do. Same goes for sprocket.

Normally I'd tell someone to go fuck themselves for making a bigoted remark like this, but I'll let this slide seeing as you don't seem to comprehend atheism. I'm sure that despite the despicable implication of your statement, it was made from ignorance of how offensive it truly is.

I didn't make the statement; You did. I was simply agree'ing with it. Can't get mad over something you said, can you?

Seeing as atheists are fluid in their interpretation of the universe, there are no real rigid principles to adhere to. As for opposition to secularism, I'll let you wrap your noodle around that.

I'm pretty sure I've had this conversation before, but nevertheless... I ask because, many times, people love to use fundamentalism as a pejorative term in order to describe a portion of theism whilst ignoring that fundamentalism doesn't refer exclusively to theism.
